Topo-Chico is a brand of sparkling mineral water from Mexico. Topo-Chico is both naturally carbonated at the source and artificially carbonated.[1]

History

Topo-Chico has been sourced from and bottled in Monterrey, Mexico since 1895. The drink takes its name from the mountain Cerro del Topo Chico in Monterrey.[2][3]

In 2017, The Coca-Cola Company purchased Topo-Chico for $220 million.[3][4] The brand was originally popular in northern Mexico and Texas, with the Coca-Cola Company later helping popularize it across the United States.[3] The drink has a cult following.[3][4][5][6]

Ranch water is a cocktail made with tequila, lime juice and Topo-Chico, over ice, a popular drink in Texas.[7] A similar drink, the Chilton, substitutes the lime for a lemon, the tequila for vodka, and adds salt on the rim. The drink allegedly derives its name from a doctor in Lubbock.[8]

Topo-Chico Hard Seltzer

In 2021, the Coca-Cola Co used its[9] sparkling mineral water brand Topo-Chico to launch a range of vegan friendly[10] alcoholic hard seltzers in the United Kingdom and in the United States with Molson Coors.[11][12][13] The range includes Tangy Lemon Lime, Tropical Mango and Cherry Acai flavors in the United Kingdom and flavors such as Tangy Lemon Lime, Tropical Mango, Strawberry Guava and Exotic Pineapple in the US.

In early 2022, Topo Chico ranch water launched their new Hard Seltzer Topo Chico Ranch Water in select markets, along with the national rollout of its variety pack. The product is now available in stores across Alabama, Arizona, California, Colorado, Georgia, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Tennessee, and Texas. [14]

In 2023, a New York resident sued Coca-Cola because its Topo Chico Margarita Hard Seltzers do not contain tequila and cited that the product's packaging was misleading about the contents of the beverage. The lawsuit was dismissed later that year.[15] In 2024, a Florida resident brought a similar suit against Coca-Cola, also citing that the product's packaging includes "false and misleading representations and omissions" suggesting that the product contains tequila.[16]

"Topo Chico" is the subject and title of the last song on Robert Ellis's 2019 album Texas Piano Man.[17]

Topo Chico is featured on the album cover of Seattle WA band iji's 2013 album UNLTD. COOL DRINKS.[18]
